I love the atmosphere of this restaurant. Its Spanish influence is seen throughout the restaurant decor. If you are able definitely sit on the patio.
I ordered the fish tacos with barracho beans.
While waiting for my main entree I noshed on the chips and salsa. They bring mild and spicy to the table. I prefer the spicy one, it has kind of a smoky flavor to it.
Took a while for the entrees to arrive. They were quite tasty though. I'd definitely come back here if I visit Austin again.

Great drinks and the BEST Tortilla Soup I've ever had (Sorry Mom). Staff was awesome and the location was close to our hotel. Also had the Pork Belly Tacos which were so good.

Thanks Ava for being awesome! We stopped in for a quick drink and Ava took excellent care of us. They had just been hit hard and she kept it fresh and was thoughtful on my drink.

The food was pretty good, but for the price, eh. Although I will say the beans were delicious! Go for the whole black beans. The outside patio area is very lovely.. makes up for the price!
